bid to do it all with automated scripts. hindsight tells me we should have supported that much more strongly.I fear the abuse resulting from free domain registration.
the price point gsi set was $100/two-years, and later in litigation the portion earmarked to go a public agency was removed, resulting in the $75/two-year price point.
of the things to fear, that hadn't happened then, such as the determination that domains are marks (wipo i), and the ancillary exploits, keeping the cost at the green-stamp price-point of zero dollars and zero cents seems a pretty odd thing to fear.
